Hi Chrissy,

I'm sorry to hear about your son. I agree 100% with other parents about not
paying
attention to the statistics. When my daughter was first diagnosed, out doctors
didn't think
she would live more than a month or two. Two year later, she is still here.
Still in
treatment but here. I'm sure you are overwhelmed and things might be a blur
right now. I
have found this website and also www.cancerfamily. org/forum to be very helpful.
Please
ask all the questions you might have. Take care and be strong.

Katherine
